Runner to the Hellstrom estate leaves the following missive, decoratively penned with the seal of house Aurelianus following the script.



[To the Lady River of house Hellstrom,

Salutations.

It is our hope that this letter finds you well and rested from the jubilation of your wedding. As you have come into the play of nobility and politics, it is even more so our great pleasure to welcome you as peer of the realm and request audience to discuss business of a many variety.

Accommodations will be made to service you and your retinue in the Port Avanthyr for duration of such discourse should you feel well in travel; we shall be promptly available at the Hellstrom Keep if not, upon your word.
With the blessings of the Vigilant and the Divine Right, we wait in great anticipation of your response.

Sincerely,

Lord Esmond Aurelianus
Northern Watch]

A neatly creased vellum, sealed within an envelope bearing a hand illuminated van Hellstrom coat of arms is returned to the Port Avanthyr headquarters of the Northern Watch. It is addressed to Lord Aurelianus.

Greetings unto the Lord Esmond Aurelianus,

Your missive did indeed find both Lord van Hellstrom and myself well rested and in remarkably good spirits. We would both like to take the opportunity to give You Our warmest thanks for Your blessings upon Our union, and the generous gift that You graced Us with. The chalices are treasures We are honored to possess. On My personal behalf, I thank You as well for the warm welcome You have so graciously extended.

I have received Your request and would be delighted to meet with You upon Your convenience. If it is no hardship upon Your person, I would prefer the meeting take place at Hellstrom Castle. The past two weeks have been a delight for Us, but exhausting all the same, and I am a little travel weary. It would be, however, My pleasure to invite You to enjoy a light meal and some refreshment as We talk. The Gods grace and blessings upon You,

Warmest regards
Lady River van Hellstrom
